Our Story
I started Brett Design in 2009 after taking the Self Employment Program at Douglas College in Coquitlam. From this point, I was inspired by new opportunities, challenges, and people I met. During these 10+ years, I have learned a lot and gathered help from some very talented individuals who all bring their own unique skills and accomplishments. We value every client and do our best to provide exceptional customer service and support. Over the years, our clients have come from various different industries such as health and wellness, building, and land development to self-employed consultants in the Coquitlam, Tri-Cities, and Vancouver Area. We pride ourselves on taking a strategic approach to design with the clients’ marketing direction and goals in mind. We also believe in honesty and building long-lasting relationships. Our story is still in the works, and if it sounds like something you want to be a part of, we’d love to talk to you! – Margaret Brett, Owner

Our Process
Gathering Information
In our first meeting, we will ask you to fill out a questionnaire which ensure the final results are appropriate and effective. From here we will develop a marketing strategy.
Finalization
After the client approves the finished design we will build the additional marketing pieces. We will also gather quotes from our trusted printers and coordinate any printing required and arrange for delivery as well.
Concept Development
Next we’ll implement the marketing strategy and create designs based around the research gathered. We’ll then present the design concepts and gather your feedback. We will make any changes necessary and present the updated work.
Ongoing Support
We will continue to offer monthly support which includes website maintenance, continued SEO, monthly reports, email marketing campaigns, logo formats and coordinating reprints.

SEO is crucial because it makes your website more visible, and that means more traffic and more opportunities to convert prospects into customers.
Your brand identity is the visual representation of values and “personality” of your brand. Identity design essentially sets the tone of your brand, and can be used to evoke specific feelings in your audience. Without a comprehensive, well-defined brand identity, your audience might not understand who you are.
